John Cale -- Mudd Club, NYC -- 1981-10-11 (w Chris Spedding) Lots of unreleased material here


John Cale
Mudd Club, New York City 1981-10-11

lineage: cassette (unknown but low generation) -> Xitel -> LP Recorder -> hd -> Nero Wave Editor -> Nero (tracking) -> flac 8

1. intro
2.
3. Ship of Lust (aka All Aboard, aka All On Board)
4. Fire in the Heart
5. Marylou
6.


David van Tiegham -- drums
James Honeyman-Scott -- guitar
Chris Spedding --

All songs except Marylou are unreleased. Sounds like Cale wrote a couple of songs, got his buddies together and went down to the club to try them out.

The question I have is who is playing bass. Is it Spedding or Cale? And, who sings lead on Marylou?

Other than Marylou, the only song I'm familiar with is Track 3, which had already been performed live at earlier concerts, and is usually referred to as "All on Board". This time around Cale introduces it, and it appears that the title is Ship of Lust.

I'm pretty sure this is in mono, which explains the small file size, but the sound is quite good.
